Still has the foot start. Winter here so my starting temp was in the 40s. Car ran for 15 minutes in garage with door open, backed her out of the garage, stalled out and cranked for close to a minute with nothing. Shot of ether and away she went. Same thing later on cranked forever. No gas smell so I am sure that it is not flooded, plus the starting fluid would only make that worse and it does not. The air cleaner is off and you can see that the butterfly is fully open.
Thanks. Dave

So my 51 Patrician starts like a champ every time, runs great (ok except the smoke from the oil fill but that is another story) but as soon as I turn it off or it dies for some reason it will not restart on its own. If I hit it with a shot of starter fluid she starts right back up. If I don't use starter fluid it will turn over but not fire.
There was at one time a electric fuel pump in the system so my guess is that the fuel pump is weak. Any suggestions before I buy a rebuild kit and have a go at the fuel pump? Thanks as always for the help. Dave

I have been gone for weeks, so sorry to those who replied.
The new flasher does not work at all, the old one is the only one that I can get anything at all to work. I am going to try as you suggested, the sockets were/are rusty and see what happens. Tonights fun was the new level of smoke coming from the oil filler, never a dull moment with a Packard. Thanks again for the help. Dave

I think I will pull the switch tonight and see what I can see. I have a parts car that I can pull a switch from and see if that one works better.
Thanks again. Dave

Thanks for the information. Right now I have driver side blinkers that flash too rapidly, nothing passenger side (front or rear) and the indicator light on the dash diplays right when the left and only lights are working. So other than that I have it all down perfectly...
I have 1154's in the sockets which according to the book are/should be correct. Brake lights and parking lights work too. I am going through all again to check grounds etc. Thanks again. Dave

I am looking for either a source to buy a new/nos flasher or if anyone has a cross reference number for this flasher.
My old one is toast and the one that I bought at NAPA with the cross reference that they had does not want to work. NAPA was #535 my original was/is P229D. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Dave

I have emailed the owner about posting his information so you can all just contact him. As soon as he mails me back I will post the email address and his phone number and you can buy away and talk parts. Jerry is VERY knowledgeable about all things Packard.
Well as I was typing Jerry got back to me. He would like you to use the subject line Packard Forum so that he knows who you are. Below is the contact information. Hope you are find what you need. By the way the shop killed my rear hubs/drums on my 51 Patrician Jerry is looking but if anyone has some for sale I really need them bad. Thanks BigKev great web site!!!
